.. _wx.MaximizeEvent:

==========================================================================================================================================
|phoenix_title|  **wx.MaximizeEvent**
==========================================================================================================================================

An event being sent when a top level window is maximized. 
         

Notice that it is not sent when the window is restored to its original size after it had been maximized, only a normal :ref:`wx.SizeEvent`  is generated in this case. 

Currently this event is only generated in wxMSW, wxGTK and OSX/Cocoa ports so portable programs should only rely on receiving  ``wxEVT_SIZE``   and not necessarily this event when the window is maximized. 







.. _MaximizeEvent-events:

|events| Events Emitted by this Class
=====================================

Handlers bound for the following event types will receive a :ref:`wx.MaximizeEvent` parameter.

 

- EVT_MAXIMIZE: Process a  ``wxEVT_MAXIMIZE``   event.   









         



.. seealso:: :ref:`Events and Event Handling <events and event handling>`, :meth:`wx.TopLevelWindow.Maximize` , :meth:`wx.TopLevelWindow.IsMaximized`
